Mel B and Stephen Belafonte

Mel B announced her plan to divorce Stephan Belafonte in March 2017 – to the shock of fans – claiming he’d got their German nanny Lorraine Gilles pregnant, and paid her extra money for her services, before she had an abortion.

But the married pair had actively gushed for one another on social media just weeks before – with Mel branding Stephen “my everything, my life, my world.”

However the pair split in December 2016 with Mel citing “irreconcilable differences” for the divorce – while it was reported she also asked for joint legal and physical custody of their daughter Madison.

Mel’s nightmare didn’t stop there, with Mel B reportedly being granted a restraining order from her estranged husband over claims he beat and sexually exploited her.

Janet Jackson and Wissam Al Mana

Janet Jackson split from her husband Wissam Al Mana just three months after the couple welcomed their first child.

The Rhythm Nation singer gave birth to son Eissa on January 3 aged 50, after the star cancelled her 2016 world tour to focus on becoming a mother.

A source told the The Mail on Sunday: “Sadly, Janet and Wissam have decided that it wasn’t working and to go their separate ways.
“They’re both busy people but determined to be good parents, even if they’re apart.”

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard

Johnny Depp, 53, and Amber Heard, 30, were at war for nearly eight months before finally finalising their divorce in January 2017.

Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick

They have been on again off again for so many years that the news of their official split in 2015 came as a surprise to many.

The break-up and the pairs’ co-parenting of their three children Mason, Penelope and Reign, is documented on reality series Keeping up with the Kardashians.

Scott has been very vocal about wanting Kourtney back, but things seemed very final when Kourtney was spotted with new toy boy Younes Bendjima in Cannes and Scott was photographed with a plethora of women while also in the French Riviera.

Perrie Edwards and Zayn Malik

Breaking up with someone via text message is one of the cruellest things a person can do, but that didn’t stop former One Directioner Zayn Malik from ending his two year engagement to Little Mix’s Perrie Edwards via text.

Zayn started dating supermodel Gigi Hadid soon after. The breakup and Zayn’s quick re-coupling is rumoured to have been the inspiration behind Little Mix’s BRIT award winning single Shout Out to my Ex.

Perry is now dating Arsenal footballer Oxlade-Chamberlainand and is probably thankful that she didn’t get a whopping great-big tattoo of Zayn somewhere on her body like his sleeve tattoo of her.

Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne

The couple that brought us one of the first celeb reality TV series’, The Osbournes, sent shock waves through the celebrity world when they announced their divorce in May 2016.

Speaking about the split on the American chat show she co-hosts, The Talk, Sharon revealed: “I think I’m the strongest I’ve ever been right now, with everything that’s going on in my life… I feel it.”

But don’t panic, harmony was restored to celeb-land a short two months after the couple’s announcement, when it was revealed that they have worked through their differences and will continue their 35 year marriage.

Emma reportedly initiated the break-up saying that Andrew “was in a dark place”, but the couple remain friendly.

Andrew was photographed hugging Emma after she won the Bafta for best actress for her role in La La Land and his emotional response to her Oscars speech left fans crying for #Stonefield to be a thing again.

Gary Lineker and Danielle Bux

Walk-ers-ing away wasn’t as expensive for Gary Lineker and his ex-wife Danielle Bux as you would expect. The couple filled for a quickie divorce online in 2016 for just £400.

They cited their differing views on starting a family as the reason for the split.

The pair remain great friends and since the split have been seen on holiday together.

After the end of their six-year relationship Danielle moved to LA and found new love with US lawyer Nate Greenwald, and Gary recently allowed his ex-wife to move back in with him in his London home only a week after she announced that she is pregnant with Greenwald’s child.
